The redirection of the output of the agent via check_mk_agent test > filename does not work correctly on Windows and misses some of the outputs of check plugins. Therefore if you want to get the output into a file the simply call the agent as follows:

C:\Program Files\Check_MK\> check_mk_agent file output.txt

The output will then be written to the file output.txt.
